Portland should simply burn the city the rest of the way to the ground and start over! Hard to fix something that is that far gone.
It is hard to find investments when they are poured down a rathole-ie paid out to “consultants”
Literacy or illiteracy has little to do with one's moral compass - one's sense of right and wrong. There are well educated people who are monsters and illiterate people who are saints. Fundamentally, we are what we 'believe'.
When you grow up on streets where gangs rule; when you have only 1 parent and she is the blind leading the blind, she lacks wisdom or ability to protect her children from the streets. When your culture teaches and believes that whitey is the cause of all your problems - what will your children believe, how will they act?
Being poor or illierate is not the problem. Being Godless is.
"The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding." - Proverbs 9:10
“As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.” - Proverbs 23:7?
“That includes people like Lionel Irving, who runs an organization called Love is Stronger”
I’m sure that makes everyone bullet proof.
Just to the east in Gresham:
“People are doing whatever they want,” Finley said. “Running around, doing drugs, shoot guns. No care of anything in the world because they know that nothing is going to happen to them.”
Ergo, they have names.
Mine are all called Tiffany.
“’Every single one of my windows inside the front to the bedroom windows are shot, I had to throw away my AC unit because it was shot,’ she said.”
Arm everyone, and give mandatory gun training to all.
And incarcerate criminals. So what if it's 3 to 1 blax who go to prison? They seem to have no problem with that anyway.
Execute within the month, criminals who are convicted of capital crimes.
Then, repeal all gun laws. Want a full auto mailed to your house? No problem.
Let's get back to a law and order society. There can be no "order" without "law." And there can be no "law" without merciless enforcement.
“It’s hard to find those investments.”
That’s because they are not investments. They are just giveaways. One trouble with socialists is that they are willing to deceive themselves with their own words.
Like The Uniparty and “infrastructure,” the wet noodles running Portland have no idea what an investment is.
Four million won’t do it. Ten million won’t, either. No amount of money will.
Make the judges do their duty to the citizens and throw the thugs under the jail instead of letting them out on the streets.
Or take it back.
I believe that if Portland and the rest of the liberal leaning cities would just adopt good policing (extensive training and enough resources to do their jobs), and a will to enforce the laws as passed by their legislatures, then they would not have the kinds of problems they are having. But it is like foreign countries are helping us become lawless. That has to stop.
If you would like more information about what’s happening in Oregon, please FReepmail me. Please send me your name by FReepmail if you want to be on this list.
Oregon is so polluted with liberal judge, the police don't have much long term effect. In Multnomah county, the liberal DA is pro-Antifa. I find it hard to believe anyone would apply of a police position.
